The make-up artist who created Billie Faiers' look in the Maldives reveals how she achieved her glowing base and winged smokey eye on her big day.

Blushing bride Billie, 29, looked radiant when she said 'I do' in a Berta fishtail, lace, and crystal embellished gown. But it was also her make-up on the day that made her shine.

Created by celebrity make-up artist, Krystal Dawn, she gave her a natural look which was slightly contoured, with splashes on colour.

'Sam’s make-up was quite natural, with a nude pink glossy lip, she wanted to go for the effortless boho babe look - very fresh,' Krystal said.

'We definitely wanted to go for a highlighted look to compliment the beach wedding vibes. She wore the most stunning dress and the highlighter complimented this perfectly. She glowed all day and all night.'

Using products from make-up brand Iconic, she started by applying an eye-shadow base in order for the product to stay in place throughout the day without moving or creasing.

Krystal then applied a Bellini-coloured eye-shadow on the eye socket and blended outward.

She then applied a fig-coloured eyeliner on top and bottom liners and flicked it out 'in a smokey way.'

She added to the smokey eye by using a dark purple eye-shadow that she applied on top of the eyeliner and blended outwards.

Krystal, who has also worked with other celebrities including Michelle Keegan, then highlighted Billie's eyes with a champagne-coloured eye-shadow - which she applied on the 'inner corner of the eye and also on the brow bone to make the eyes really pop.'

Krystal then used foundation to contour the outer corner of the eye, forehead and cheekbones.

'I then used the liquid highlighter and dotted this on the top of the cheek bones and blend. I set all of this with powder and a matte bronzer, she said.'

To finish up the base, she applied 'a peachy blush onto the apples of the cheeks.'

'I try to keep the brows as natural as possible and add soap through them for texture and then apply dip brow in the areas that need it by doing little brushstroke,' she explained.

For the final touches, Krystal used a lip liner and lipstick for Billie's lips and used liquid highlighter on Faiers' collar bone and then sprayed the upper body with a darker colour.

To achieve this look at home, Krystal said, 'try using a bronzer first to get some practice winging the eye out. Contour creams can be quite tricky so ease yourself in,' she added.

'To highlight the face, try the prep set and glow before you apply foundation so that it was that glow for summer without looking oily.'

If you want to obtain a perfect glossy lip, Krystal said you should 'apply lip liner and blend slightly inwards before applying the gloss.

'This makes the lip long lasting and also gives the gloss a base. Match your gloss to your liner or your look.'

Speaking to OK! magazine about the ceremony, Billie Faiers gushed it was like a 'fairy tale', with Greg, 33, pulling out all the stops by arriving on a speedboat.

She added: 'It’s so lovely for me to finally be a Shepherd and share a surname with my children. Marriage ties our little family together completely.'

Explaining her decision making process behind the gown, which featured a risque sheer panel to showcase her cleavage, Billie said: 'As soon as I tried it on I had "the feeling" when you know you know!'
